Being the Principal what is your philosophy of leadership? How would you describe your leadership style?

My leadership philosophy is to lead by example. I take all the stakeholders at my college as a team, put them at the forefront and include them in every decision. I treat them as valuable resources that can help us achieve our college goals while they themselves achieve their own personal goals.


Any suggestions you would like to give to the current youth and the aspiring students?

Nursing is a noble profession and one of the oldest professions. In today’s world, nurses are the backbone of the healthcare sector. Nursing gives ample opportunity to serve human kind, particularly needy and sick people. There is no shortage of jobs or unemployment in Nursing. You can work as an independent nurse practitioner, academician or even look for jobs internationally. All it takes is identifying the opportunities and being ready to grab them when they arise.


What are some plans that you’re currently (or will be) designing for PEWS Group of Institutions international affairs and/or students?

Currently, we have plans to organise international level programs and to invite nursing experts and stakeholders of healthcare organisations. We want to send representatives to international nursing conferences and workshops organised by different countries. We want to send our students to different recruitment agencies for international placements. We also have plans to help students prepare for international examinations like TOEFL, CRNE and OET.
